Overlap wave springs, also known as nested wave springs or zigzag springs, offer several advantages compared to traditional coil springs and other types of springs. Here are some of the key advantages of overlap wave springs:
High Spring Rate: Overlap wave springs can achieve a higher spring rate (force per unit deflection) compared to coil springs of similar size. This is because the multiple overlapping wave elements act together to resist compression, resulting in a stiffer spring.
Constant Force: Overlap wave springs tend to provide a more constant spring force over a wide range of deflection. This makes them suitable for applications that require a consistent force throughout the spring's stroke.
Compact Design: For a given spring force and deflection, overlap wave springs have a lower overall height compared to coil springs. This compact design allows them to be used in applications where space is limited.
Ease of Installation: Overlap wave springs can be easily compressed and inserted into a housing or bore. This simplifies installation and reduces the need for complex fixtures or tools.
Shock Absorption: The overlapping wave elements of an overlap wave spring provide a damping effect. This can help absorb shock and vibration in dynamic applications, reducing noise and improving the reliability of the system.
Long Life and Durability: Overlap wave springs are designed to withstand repeated compression and decompression cycles with minimal wear and deformation. They can maintain their spring properties over a long period of use, resulting in a longer service life.
Versatility: Overlap wave springs can be customized to meet specific application requirements. The number of wave elements, material, and dimensions can be varied to achieve the desired spring rate, deflection, and other properties.
Corrosion Resistance: By selecting appropriate materials, overlap wave springs can be made resistant to corrosion and other environmental factors. This makes them suitable for use in harsh or corrosive environments.
In summary, overlap wave springs offer advantages in terms of high spring rate, constant force, compact design, ease of installation, shock absorption, long life, versatility, and corrosion resistance. These properties make them an attractive choice for various applications where precision, reliability, and durability are important.
